Saw this on 48hrs Saturday night. I honestly don't think he boiled his wife. One, the cops interviewed him when he was whacked out on meds while in the hospital recovering from an 80ft fall. Also, how would he be able to fit a 55g drum full on water and a grown woman on his resturant's stove and leave it there for 4 days while no-one noticed?

Did he kill her? Hell yah, but even the prosecutors quickly moved away from the "boiled her down to get rid of the body" theory.

Even assuming murder is 100% legal for you and no one will miss the person, it's still a lot of hard work and emotional shiat to go through when you could just divorce them and move on.

I've never understood why people attempt to murder a spouse when they are no longer happy with them. A divorce would be much cheaper; even if you did get away with it you would have to live with it the rest of your life. (which I guess wouldn't bother some people) just waiting for the other shoe to drop, because if the deceased's family is a close family, they will NEVER let it go. I'd say the legal route is definitely the way to go.

The article just says he filled the drum with boiling water, not that it was on a stove, but yeah, the logistics are a little screwy without more info.

Don't some restaurants have high temperature cleaning and dishwashing hoses? Could've used one of those to fill the drum, I guess.

here's a two part story, one about burgers, the other about a cannibal chef

a local restaurant used to have a burger called the cannibal. it was great.

a chef at some fancy restaurant killed his wife, cooked her up, ate her, and jumped off a hotel rooftop to his death. (surprisingly similar to this story, difference was that the suicide attempt was successful, and I believe he was pretty fancy about his cooking preparation)

then the restaurant removed the cannibal burger from their menu. apparently, actual cannibalism was not the connection they were trying to make.
